7.2.4) Plan to reduce energy consumption
Have an energy efficiency plan in place to reduce overall energy consumption.
TKU hosts environmental sustainability promotion committee meeting annually to discuss energy-saving plans for the three campuses' upcoming academic year, and regularly supervises and reviews the implementation of each campus plan. In response to climate change and warming issues, in line with the Ministry of Economic Affairs's plan to promote government agencies and institutes to save electricity by 1% per year, during the 2021 academic year, the Tamsui campus aims to reduce the EUI value of the campus by 1%. It is estimated that the electricity consumption will be reduced by 234,000 kWh and the carbon will be reduced by 119,000 kilograms. The implementation strategy includes energy consumption management and control of buildings and halls to achieve equipment energy saving.
1. Renewing the air conditioner on the second floor of the College of Foreign Languages and Literatures.
2. Replacing the multi-connected inverter air conditioners on the 3rd and 4th floors of the Chung-Ling Chemistry Hall with new ones.
3. The second phase lighting improvement project of Chung-Ling Chemistry Hall.
4. The lighting improvement project of the Science Hall coordinated with the Office of General Affairs to guide each building to implement energy-saving management work, the administrator may accurately record the electricity consumption of each space and conduct electricity consumption analysis. According to this analysis, counseling units with higher energy consumption on energy conservation management work, discussing and improving the electricity consumption of each space may be conducted.
